Credo Brands Marketing is one of the leading domestic brands in the mid-premium and premium casual men's wear market in the country.
The IPO for RBZ Jewellers, based in Ahmedabad, comprises a completely fresh issue of one crore equity shares, according to the draft papers.
The proceeds from the offering will be utilised, up to Rs 80.75 crore, to fund the company's working capital requirements and general corporate purposes.
Both companies intend to list their equity shares on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
